Lucy Lyrics by Simple Creatures

Strange Love

2019

[Verse 1: Alex Gaskarth & Mark Hoppus]
The water won't boil, think I've been staring too long
This house is on fire and I don't want to get out of my bed
(Get out of my bed)
The streets of this town are cracked and crumblin' now
Been trippin' for miles and I don't want to go home to what's left
(So tell me what's left)

[Pre-Chorus: Both & Alex Gaskarth]
Wanna be the driver of your getaway car
Stash the paper bag at the back of the bar
Smile through the pain and run away from your past
Leave the handgun, take the cash

[Chorus: Alex Gaskarth]
Ooh, can we make an honest woman out of Lucy?
Ooh, gotta make an honest woman out of Lucy

[Verse 2: Alex Gaskarth & Mark Hoppus]
Sharpen your mouth, let words come tumblin' out
Stare into space 'til silence breaks through the crowd
Oh, what's next (Was it somethin' she said?)
Tighten that grip on Heaven just to hold on
No, you don't care what, it's just been too fuckin' long
Since they said (Take whatever's left)

[Pre-Chorus: Both & Alex Gaskarth]
So tell me about a world that ran away with your heart
Pulled apart your ribs and left you broken and scarred
Smile through the pain and run away from your past
Leave the handgun, take the cash

[Chorus: Alex Gaskarth]
Ooh, can we make an honest woman out of Lucy?
Ooh, gotta make an honest woman out of Lucy

[Bridge: Mark Hoppus]
(Leave the handgun, take the cash)
Hiding out at a lonely diner
Still awake from the night before
So afraid of the past behind ya
Lay low from the uniform
Back lot with the blue lights flashin'
Radio in a 914
Find yourself on the concrete gaspin'
Starin' up at a uniform

[Chorus: Alex Gaskarth]
Ooh, can we make an honest woman out of Lucy?
Ooh, gotta make an honest woman out of Lucy
